    My mother brings me home and I run to my room and cry until school ends, then when Josh gets home, I can go to his house. My head starts to hurt and I decide to take a nap.
When I wake up, I see that it's 3:30. I decide to go over to Josh's. I tell my mother where I'm going and hurry out the door. I arrive at Josh's place and knock on the door. I wait as I hear Abby and Jordan laugh in the background. Josh opens up and I come in without invitation. We go into his room and I start to cry again. He puts on hand on my back. "It'll be okay, you're okay" he whispers. I'm lucky to have a friend like him, he's a guy who will take care of you no matter what.
"Hey" he says and I look up. "A girl, what's her name? What's her name?" He pauses, thinking for a minute when the name comes to mind, "Jenna!" He exclaims. "What about her?" I ask, wondering how he found out about her. "She asked me if we were friends, I told her yeah, and she asked for your number. I gave it to her, she looked pretty worried." He says. I stare at him, thinking. Was Jenna worried about me? "Did she give you her number?" I ask, wanting so badly to text her but not knowing why. He nods and gives it to me. I look at him. "Text her." He whispers. I do
Tyler: hey.. is this Jenna Black?
Jenna: Yup.
Why did I text her.. what do I need?
Tyler: I was wondering if you might wanna come over tomorrow, I know we just met but I want to talk to you
Jenna: I'd love to
Why did you do that, you're going to drive her away you freak! What's wrong with you? You don't deserve a beautiful girl like her. She's going to leave you as soon as you open up to her. Don't even try it.
Apparently I'm gone again because Josh is shaking me like crazy "Tyler? Tyler? Are you okay?"
I blink and put my hand on my head and all I can do is nod.
When I get home, I don't even acknowledge my parents and siblings and go straight to my room. Worrying about what I said to Jenna and how I know I'm going to lose her. Not that I like her or anything.. I think. This is too much I think to myself and suddenly I'm having urges and I'm shaking and trembling and I take my blade from my back and cut down. I stop after a few because it's hurting more then it ever has so I but a bunch of bandages on and go to sleep
